ト樹脂繊維で代替したセパレータが提案された。In a sealed lead-acid battery, the electrode plates and separator are impregnated with electrolyte, and there is no free electrolyte, but in terms of battery performance, it is better to have a large amount of electrolyte, and from this point of view, separator materials with excellent liquid absorption properties are used. must be used. Although glass mats have good acid resistance and electrolyte retention ability, they cannot be made into a bag shape because they are weak against bending, and they are also expensive. Therefore, some or all of the glass fibers are replaced with thermoplastic resin fibers, such as polyethylene terephthalate.
A separator using resin fiber as a substitute was proposed.

生じるもととなるという問題があった。Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in order to improve the reliability of lead-acid batteries and reduce costs, it is sufficient to increase the blending ratio of resin fibers.
In that case, the resin fiber's affinity for the electrolyte deteriorates, and the separator's ability to absorb the electrolyte deteriorates, resulting in an increase in battery internal resistance, which adversely affects large current discharge characteristics and low-temperature characteristics. give. Therefore, when resin fibers are mixed with glass fibers, a liquid absorbing agent such as silica powder is added. However, in this case, powder is scattered during the process, which is not good for the working environment, and the material becomes non-uniform, which causes variations in performance as a separator.
